About Isalis Sanchez-Pena, MD

Isalis Sanchez-Pena, MD, is an OB/GYN who sees patients at The Women’s Center’s locations in Altamonte Springs, Winter Park, and Hunter’s Creek, Florida.

Born and raised in Humacao, Puerto Rico, Dr. Sanchez-Pena attended the University of Puerto Rico for her undergraduate studies, graduating summa cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in biology. Medicine has always been a part of her life and it is true when they say some things run in the family, since her father is also an OB/GYN and has been her role model. 

Dr. Sanchez-Pena attended medical school at the University of Puerto Rico School of Medicine, graduating cum laude. When it was time to choose a specialty, it was easy for her, as women’s health was her passion and she decided to pursue a residency in the OB/GYN specialty. She completed OB/GYN residency at the University of Puerto Rico, Medical Sciences Campus in San Juan.

Having an interest in genetics, she further completed a second residency program in medical genetics at the University of Miami. She currently applies her genetics knowledge in her patient care. Dr. Sanchez-Pena believes that OB/GYN is the best specialty because it allows her the opportunity to care for women throughout all stages of life, and navigate and understand them together. She has a special interest in adolescent care, menopause, PCOS, preconception care and minimally invasive surgery. 

In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her daughter, husband and dog. They love traveling, experimenting new places and watching baseball. They consider themselves foodies and love to try cuisine from around the world, learning about each culture. She is fluent in Spanish and English.
